Description

Self-care is seen as a necessary part of life, but how can young Christians learn to reconcile a culture that prizes “self-care” while following a Saviour who calls them to “lose their life” for the sake of his kingdom? What constitutes “good self-care” practices vs. “bad self-care” practices?

In this episode, Scott and Shawn use the “think like Jesus framework” to consider how Jesus would think about self-care, and they discover some vital truths that can help you keep your “self-care” from becoming “self-ish care”.
